Description: | Fragment of a cast lead alloy object, possibly a lid from a vessel or container. The top face is decorated with a male face in relief which appears to be moustached and bearded and wearing a high collar. The lid is broken at the neck of the figure and it is assumed rest of the body would have been on the missing part. The wavy hair is partly missing. A right-angled flange extends around the sides but does not seem to have continued around the entire lid.
Lids of the same form, but bearing the body of a frog as viewed from above in relief, have been found in Suffolk (SF10571) and Lancashire (F0E3E6). Their date and function is uncertain but likley to be post-medieval. | Subjects: | Lid | Source: | Portable Antiquities | Identifier: | http://www.findsdatabase.org.uk/hms/pas_... | Language: | en-GB | Go to resource |
